From an amble to a trek, Keswick has it all; a pretty market town which is popular with walkers and climbers. In the area you'll find Scafell Pike, England's highest mountain and Wastwater, England's deepest lake.
Kendal, Windermere and the South Lakes offer tranquill lakes and sprawling green hills. The area is dominated by Windermere, England's longest lake, and is dotted with bustling Lakeland towns and traditional villages.
Immerse yourself in culture while attending Theatre by the Lake, where you can experience The Drama of the Lakes at the special productions and events. If you want guaranteed fun for all the family, look out for the Lakes Alive, a new season of world-class performance and arts events around the Lake District.
Be inspired by its lakes, mountains, and hidden valleys and get involved in some of the exciting outdoor pursuits that the Lake District has to offer. From up high to down low, enjoy the views and an exploration of geology by abseiling and caving. Take part in numerous water sports and sailing opportunities on offer for all budgets, ages and abilities. Harness the power of the wind and learn to windsurf, or view the landscape from the air from a balloon or paraglider. Test your driving and navigation skills by off-roading and orienteering. The Lake District is great for families with loads of fun attractions to visit. Let the kids use up their energy at Grizedale Forest's challenging course or rope bridges and zip slides up to 60 feet above the forest floor. Alternatively take the little ones to see Peter Rabbit and friends and enjoy lunch or afternoon tea in the Beatrix Potter Tea Room. Animal lovers will enjoy the South Lakes Wild Animal Park in Dalton. From the 'treetops' style decking you can watch rhinos, giraffes and baboons at leisure and don't forget to watch the lions being fed.
An area of luxury and peace, the Lake District is the place to go if you want to escape from it all. Retreat to a cosy cottage in beautiful surroundings and enjoy dinner in one of the many exquisite restaurants. Or enjoy the simpler things in life and set up camp on the beautiful green pastures and enjoy the breathtaking views.
With lots of culture and plenty of heritage to be enjoyed, there are a number of museums and galleries to visit, including the High Head Sculpture Valley, a family friendly contemporary art gallery and tearoom with 5 acres of outdoor sculpture park and 70 acres of farm walks.
With England's five tallest mountains and deepest lake, Cumbria's rich natural environment is simply unique. Visit the Lake District and explore and enjoy the great outdoors.
